Former North Caddo football player and current "Duck Dynasty" favorite uncle, Si Robertson, is parlaying his fame into the children's Christmas DVD realm.

Children's faith-based home entertainment leader VeggieTales recently cast Robertson, rapidly becoming a TV icon, in its upcoming Christmas DVD, "Merry Larry and the True Light of Christmas." Scheduled to arrive in Christian retail outlets Oct. 19, followed by a general release Oct. 22, the new holiday story tells the story of the true meaning of Christmas using Robertson's homespun humor.
